“Polina is a nice intelligent person. I highly recommend her. I left my puppy for 9 nights and Polina kept in touch all the time about how my puppy is and what my puppy is doing. She really takes good care of my puppy, by walking him every 3 hours and feeding him as I asked her to. When I came to pick the puppy up, I found that the puppy was very happy, vitally joyful, and very active.”
“We had an excellent experience with Huijun and her husband! They were very communicative throughout our dog's stay and even went above and beyond to treat and mitigate the ear mites she developed while she was there. They have a beautiful house and fenced in yard. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!”
“Meghan was awesome, she took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay, she's also a great photographer so you'd get nice shots of your pets, a 100% recommended.”
“Mary was the perfect match for our elderly dog: she is patient and caring. Mary has her home and yard set up for every dog's optimal comfort, which we especially appreciated since our dog has arthritis. Ella, our 15 year-old papillon, loved her!”
“I highly recommend Tia D as a dog sitter! From the moment I left my pup in her care, I felt confident that they were in great hands. Tia’s communication was top-notch! she kept me updated throughout the entire stay with regular messages and plenty of adorable photos that brightened my day. It was clear my dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for, which put my mind at ease. Tia’s attention to detail and genuine love for animals truly set her apart. She made sure my pet’s need were met perfectly and was always available for any questions or updates I needed. I could tell she went the extra mile to make my pup feel comfortable and loved. Her professionalism and warmth made the experience fantastic from start to finish. If you’re looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative dog sitter, book with Tia D. You won’t be disappointed – I loved the experience and so did my dog :)”
About: I'm an enthusiastic dog walker and sitter that has a passion for dogs and rescuing them. I have been involved in dog rescue and fostering in the Syracuse area for a number of years. I've cared for a number of my own dogs and cats from young to seniors. I've also been a foster parent to a number of dogs when rescues needed someone. I can handle the most challenging of dogs down to little babies and everything in between. Your dog will get plenty of love and attention when I'm around! I give all dogs the same love and affection I would give my own dog and see the importance of cuddle and buddy time along with good exercise. I show confidence when I'm with a dog so that they know there is trust with me from the beginning. I currently work part time, so have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I am always available after 3:00 p.m. during the week, before 8:00 a.m. or anytime on the weekends. I've got a very pet friendly home. I live in a single story, ranch house that has a fully fenced back yard. I do not have children at home that we would need to worry about and I'm very respectful if needed to go into a client's home. Safety and security are always at the forefront.
“Erix was awesome. It was our first time leaving our dog alone with someone he is unfamiliar with but Erix made him feel right at home. He is very privy, prompt, send pics and updates. Will definitely recommend and use his services moving forward.”
“This is Zena's second time with Sam and she loved it. Sam is great with Zena. Sam is aware of Zena's triggers and needs. Zena had a full yard to hunt and play in. Sam sent videos and pictures daily and of Zenas activities and communicated in a friendly and timely manner. Zena loves hanging out with Brown Dog! Without a doubt, I will make more reservations. Thank you Sam!”
“Elizabeth did awesome with our nervous dog. Before booking, she suggested a "trial run" which was great. We had our dog Ozzie stay with her for a weekend and he was very happy when we picked him up, obviously well cared for, and she sent pics while we were gone, too! We plan on working with Elizabeth again when we need another dog sitter. Thank you, Elizabeth!”
“Nina was a lifesaver! She was able to schedule a meet and greet, and book our dog for the weekend with short notice. She was very communicative. We received updates, and pictures, which was so appreciated. Our dog seemed very content during his stay with Nina. We are looking forward to using her again!”
“I have booked with Jenna before... our experience was so good and easy, we came back for another round. Satisfied customer yet again! My pup is always so happy when he gets there, and doesn't seem to want to leave! He loves his buddy Stitch (Jenna's pup). Jenna is also really accommodating to pick up and drop offs. Just another happy customer. Thank you Jenna!”
“Irina did a very good job with our seventh month old max. She was very understanding when we showed up late due to his car sickness problems. She sent pictures and videos everyday. We were very happy to know that Max got some play time with her dogs and other rover visitors he loved that. He was even sad this morning looking for other dogs when we got home. She was very kind and understanding. She even left a thank you note and a cute note from max to his parents. We will drfinately be using her again if we go out Of town. Thank you irina and thank you for not having to have us lock him in a kennel boarding for a week. ”
“I left my almost 16 year old pug with Carrie and her husband while I traveled for 10 days to visit family. I know she was in great hands, she’s usually a little nervous at first but ran right up her steps when I got there as she’s been there before short term. Carrie sent me messages and pictures often enough. She got lots of outdoor time, was tended to her older age needs, and even got to sleep next to them as she’s used to it at home. I feel very lucky to have found her through Rover and I’d highly recommend her and her husband!”
“Ginnie watched our puppy Woody for a full weekend. We were very confident after meeting her that he would be in great hands and we were right. I would not hesitate to use her services again!”
“Jaclyn has been absolutely amazing with my pup! My pup has stayed with her many times and e erytime has been a great experience. Whether it's a last minute request or way in advance, Jaclyn has always been responsive. She is the best and my go-to sitter 😊”
“I felt very comfortable leaving Jackson with Amber. She was communicative and sent pictures. Jackson seemed very comfortable at her home and I felt good knowing he was being taken care of.”
“Eden and Gal are a great team providing excellent care and attention to my pup’s needs. This was a first time with them and my pup developed allergy symptoms which they reported to me, followed my directions, took her to her vet, and administered the prescription. In addition the affection and tummy rubs were excellent. Pictures each day showed me how happy and safe my pup was during her nearly week long stay. They even gave me Abbey’s report card listing activities feeding sleeping etc. Great job ladies!”

We came in from out of town and found Daylin on Rover. It was our first time using Rover and Daylin was great with Parker. We picked Parker up and she was great and happy. We also received a few pictures while she was staying there as well. We will for sure use her again on our next trip.
Carlie was awesome! She took such good care of Banks. Sent lots of updates and took tons of pictures which helped me see how much fun he was having there! She has an incredible yard for dogs to play and provided fun treats for Banks! I’d fully trust her to watch Banks again :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Cicero is $56 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $32 and $71 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

As of October 2026, there are 206 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Cicero. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
98% of sitters in Cicero can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Cicero home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Cicero.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Cicero sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NY ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
